Made one of these skeleton handled knives last year for the knifemaker who sits behind me at Blade.
I named it the "Odomite" after him.
He kept telling me how many otters he skinned with it, and I got a huge kick out of that.
I liked it, and decided to make more.
7" overall, with a 3" cutting edge.
1/8" CPM154, flat ground.
Not quite finished, I need to rub a little more, mark, and sharpen, but I had the camera out today, taking pics for a customer.
I made a bunch of these Kiridashis in the old shop, and never quite finished them because I discovered I am NOT a sheathmaker.
Got turned on to a sheathmaker by Mike @ Tad gear though, so I finished them up, and sent them off.
Near 5-1/2" overall, with about 1-3/4" cutting edge.
1/8" ATS34
Textured CF, Textured G10, and Silver Twill scales
The folder is a knife I made for myself.
I'm sick of being embarassed because the knife I carry is one of my first, and wasn't good enough to sell.
Titanium bolster.
Silver twill scale. Far side is a solid titanium framelock.
Ti clip and double studs.
Stainless standoffs.
Cpm154, 1/8" * 3-1/4" You can't tell in the pic, but it's satin finished.
